iMistake

1 min read
The first sin(read mistake) to my iPod just happened. The right earphone I dropped on the table without much looking fell into my coffee mug, and ...
Now I have tried to listen to it, not exactly dead, but emits a fainter sound!(because it's an Apple one, other branded ones would just have kicked).
I would try to buy a budget Sony(streetstyles are cool) or Sennheiser some months later, once my piggy starts ringing!

Jurassic Park

2 min read
It was'nt a movie. Jurassic Park. It changed the area of interests and thoughts in me,an awe-inspiring way.Many memories are woven with it ,and I shall try to disclose some of them.
The first day I went to see it in a Cinema Hall,back in 1993,with my aunt and little bro,I did'nt actually have much sense about Hollywood special effects and CGI.The very first scene left my feet trembling,followed by others.I was strait-spine all the time,apprehending eagerly thenext scenario.There was heavy rainfall at that night in our area,and I could not sleep,or even shut my eyes for minutes.What if a Tyrannosaurus decides to chop me down,or a pack of Velociraptors nibble out of my face ! I was haunted, and did'nt know anything beyond that.

Soon the memories began to fade away lacking proper exposure from media. The real dig began when I grew a little old,and the movie would sometimes screen on cable.For the first time ,I realized the story,and watched closely those cruel reptilian faces,and started to grow interest in them. I saw it again, and again and again.On TV,Newspaper,VHS tapes,VCD,DVD,any possible media I could getmy hands on.I wanted to know what they were,every possible data about them.Every single scene was like taped in my memory.I began buying books,illustrations,posters,models,t-shirts et al. I would eat,drink and sleep dinosaurs.Went to see robotic gigantic models of them on Science City,and kept imagining how inferior to them was we,the Human race.

The third 'phase' began when I was in High-school,with my best friend and dino-savvy pal Souvik...we used to dicuss the movie(the sequels as well),the books(by Michael Crichton),the theory of their extinction.We promised ourselves to watch the movies each and everytime it screens on TV.Often our friend list was well-surpassed by -saurus list that we kept close-locked in our mind,to show geekiness.Countless Hours and days passed surfing the Net,on Wikipedia, Answers,Ask and others.

Even if today when I watch it,and revise the scenes in mind,I am lost in another world.Every single scene churns out a memory deep
within.Maybe childish scream replaced by Chaos Theory,nightmares by DNA Transplant or posters by Reaserch Papers;I will not forget any part of this any time of my life,it ... just flows in my veins.

It was a hell of a movie !

My new logo

1 min read
Today is very special as the new logo/avatar/deviantID of mine is released.
It is sharper than before, bears the initials and reflects the mood to always move ahead. It has been colored green for similar reasons.

It has been created in Photoshop CS2, my favorite image creation/edit software ; hope all you like the new approach.
This logo is going to stay till atleast six months or late, untill a newer one replaces it. It also signifies my current area of interest, Vector.


...

Simple yet Elegant.
